Weekly ☆ Character Showcase #251: Chibi From the Dragon Ball Z Anime!
Chibi - Dragon Ball Z -
The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week. This time, we're looking at the charming, cherubic child of Toto, Chibi!
Story
Chibi is the son of the pterosaur-like Toto, who lives on a rocky mountain near the home of the Son family. He is friends with Goten, and the two are often seen playing together. While his parents are away from their nest, Chibi is snatched away by the dastardly Musaka from the circus and forced to perform as a sideshow act.
In his guise as the Great Saiyaman, Gohan rescues Chibi from the circus but is pursued by the police due to being mistaken as a thief.
Hearing his son's cries, Toto and his mate arrive to rescue Chibi, causing a panic in the city. However, thanks to the Great Saiyaman's heroic efforts, Chibi is safely returned to his parents, and order is restored once more.

Trivia
He still has a fear of flying?
With Chibi rescued and perched on his back, the Great Saiyaman attempted to use Buku-Jutsu (Levitation Technique) to bring him back to his nest, causing Chibi to squirm dramatically. Since he's still quite young, it appears he still is afraid to fly.
Afterwards, he returns to his nest riding on the back of his mother, appearing relieved with his smile on his face.
Next week's character will also be a dragon that's as cute as a button!
